MJL Jomana

Jomana is a residential building by Meraas within Madinat Jumeirah Living (MJL), a low-rise arabesque district on the southern edge of Jumeirah. Scheduled for completion in May 2026 and currently 71.74% built, it occupies a position adjacent to the community's central park and is the first building within MJL to adopt the developer's updated contemporary design language.

# The building and its place within Madinat Jumeirah Living

MJL sits between the historic Madinat Jumeirah resort and the residential stretch of Umm Suqeim, a part of Dubai that has maintained lower density and a more considered pace of development than the marina corridor to the north. Jomana is a single building within this broader masterplan, set alongside the community park rather than on its periphery.

The architecture marks a deliberate shift. Earlier phases of MJL drew heavily on traditional arabesque detailing; Jomana introduces a contemporary facade while retaining proportions and materials that keep it coherent with its surroundings. It is an evolution of the neighbourhood's character rather than a departure from it.

# Residences, layouts and kitchen specification

The building offers one, two, three and four-bedroom apartments. Unit layouts are designed to make use of the views available from this park-adjacent position, with configurations that Meraas describes as taking advantage of the surrounding sightlines.

Interiors carry premium finishes throughout. Entrance lobbies, lift cabins and floor lobbies are finished to a modern standard consistent with the broader MJL development. Kitchens come equipped with integrated appliances, which is the extent of furnishing provided; all other spaces are handed over unfurnished. The service charge is set at AED 20 per square foot annually.

# Amenities shared across the community

Jomana's residents have access to a landscaped pool surrounded by planting, spacious green areas and dedicated play zones for families, and fitness centres. A retail centre serves the wider MJL community, covering day-to-day requirements without requiring residents to leave the district.

The amenity set is compact but well-matched to the residential character of the area. MJL is not a resort-branded development with extensive hospitality facilities, and Jomana does not position itself as one.

# Distances that matter: schools, beaches and the city

Raffles International School sits approximately one kilometre away, a three-minute drive. The Mall of the Emirates is 1.3 kilometres, reachable in around four minutes. The nearest public beach is 2.4 kilometres, seven minutes by car, and Burj Al Arab is roughly the same distance in the same direction. Downtown Dubai is 14.8 kilometres, with an eighteen-minute drive under typical conditions.

These distances reflect one of MJL's practical strengths: the district is embedded in the established southern Jumeirah corridor rather than isolated on reclaimed land or behind a single arterial road.

# Who Jomana is likely to suit

At 71.74% completion with a May 2026 handover, Jomana sits at a stage where buyers can assess construction progress directly rather than committing on renders alone. The project is currently listed as out of stock through primary channels, which positions the secondary market as the principal route for acquisition.

The profile this attracts tends to be end-users seeking a low-rise, park-adjacent address in a mature district, alongside investors who regard the Umm Suqeim corridor as a more durable bet than higher-supply submarkets further up the coast. The combination of a Meraas delivery record, a school within walking distance and direct access to Jumeirah's beach strip gives Jomana a straightforward case to make to families relocating from London, European cities or the wider GCC.
